DIGEST OF CASES ON ADMINISTRATION OF CRIMINAL JUSTICE LAWS IN NIGERIA VOL V OF 2023

Abstract

On Strengthening the Implementation and Compliance with the Administration of Criminal Justice Act/Laws in Nigeria. The enactment of the Administration of Criminal Justice Act (ACJA) in 2015, along with its state-level counterparts, represents a pivotal milestone in reshaping Nigeria’s legal and judicial landscape. Supported by the commitment of funders and stakeholders to enhance capacity and develop jurisprudence for effective implementation, the Criminal Justice in Nigeria Project (2.0) has offered critical insights into the reform process. These insights emphasize the urgent need to institutionalize and broaden ongoing efforts, ensuring that progress is sustainable beyond the initial funding phase while embedding inclusivity at every stage of criminal justice administration.
